The film has a 17% approval rating based on 6 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. Ray Mark Rinaldi of St. Louis Post-Dispatch highlighted the films camp aesthetics, and described the performances as a "cartoon brought to life." Glenn Kenny of EW praised the film for its "low budget charm". Lorry Kikta of Film Threat praised the action sequences, costume design, and dialogue. She also highlighted the performances of Susan Tyrell and Richard Grieco. In contrast, TV Guide panned the movie, commenting that it was obviously inspired by RoboCop, but lacked the "inspiration's satiric viewpoint, or enough of a budget to create any memorable action scenes."
